DMLT Scope

The challenges faced by DMLT freshers are as follows:

• Low starting salary: Many freshers experience starting with a low salary (especially in smaller labs or clinics), which can be demotivating, regardless of the practical skills they develop. 

• Limited job awareness: Freshers often have little to no clarity regarding their career path, job roles, and growth opportunities, which can hinder their ability to make the right choice. 

• Hands-on confidence: Some students wonder if they are ready for "real-time" lab work when undervalued because of their limited practical experience in their studies. 

• High competition: Jobs for lab technicians are on the rise but the number of DMLT graduates is rising at the same rate, which makes securing jobs with some student scientists even more difficult without a personal network or experience.
